Hi James,

Thanks for your comment, I appreciate it. The outbound links factor used to be a bit of an SEO golden nuggett, however it is common knowledge now. Interesting to here about the PR4 page, that means it must have been getting it’s juice internally.

Great article! I have seen evidence of this myself,(i.e a particular page on a legal site became a pagerank 4 with no inbound links!) your content here is fascinating,
I’ll be sure to come and read your blog again Tim and bookmark your pages
5 Stars!

@ashok,

You obviously need to keep up all your usual SEO techniques but you will be surprised with the effect optimised outbound links can have, good luck

Thank you for the advice! I never really thought about associating many of the “authority” articles I link to with a specific keyword; I usually just list the author’s name and article title in the anchor text. Will have to consider doing that next time I create a link.

Hi Mike,

I can’t really answer how links in footers or like you say a blogroll, effect the boost outgoing links give. As you will see I don’t use a blogroll and it’s not because I don’t like any I just think it creates too many outgoing links on the most powerful page of your site, the homepage, I regularly refer to other blogs in my posts editorially and in my opinion that is a better quality of link anyway.

The way I see it is when thinking about link building you should be looking for naturally given editorial links, if this is Google wants to see from the links pointing at your site why wouldn’t they want to see it from the links pointing out? Another Google mystery but thats my take
